Not sure

I really dislike the design, but functionality given was a huge improvement from iOS 7, but considering I'll have to wait for an ios 7 jailbreak to get another theme, when most functionality is available on the cydia store. :rolleyes:
 
I like the iOS 7 functionality but prefer the iOS 6 designs. What's wrong with the green felt :p I always show off to non-iPhone users the design and they are always impressed and envious. I like the shredding of passport card, the green felt, the Notes realistic look, the beautiful icons and etc... I'm not sure if I would like the flat look of the icons :( I don't know now if I will upgrade to iOS 7.
 
iOS 7 Beta 1 is a visual disaster full of readability and usability problems. Lets all hope over the new few months those issues are resolved. Regardless though, I think Apple went to far away from what has worked for them for 6 versions.

Some loud voices were screaming about the use of green felt and exaggerated textures; but what iOS 7 looks like now is a complete 180. It's like Apple said, "Oh yeah? You don't like textures and visual depth? Fine! Take this!"

The icons are the worst offenders of this new visual style. Icons have been striped of all character and depth. They are all one dimension and rely on harsh gradients and odd color combinations to differentiate themselves.

I patiently wait for the Fall. I've owned every iPhone, always updated to the newest OS on Day 1, but I may just stay on iOS 6 if the design isn't finished. Because, what we see now cant be the finished product.
 
Put me down for a solid Meh....nothing earth shattering. Honestly, if the biggest talk around iOS7 is the look and colors, etc. then Samsung nailed their Next Big Thing advertising last year and will most certainly score an even bigger win with what's coming down the road.

Of course. You know it! :cool:
 
Did I not say that in the VERY FIRST LINE of my post??

herp derp work on your reading comprehension skills. It's important.

You did say that whatever pink and purple there is, it's in the background, but you have to look really hard to see it. That's why I said you must be colorblind. If you meant something else, then you should have worded it differently. Maybe you should work on your communication skills, because you obviously don't know how to clearly convey a point.
 
New IOS 7

There is no choice if you think the functionality and Icons stink! The Icons look like a grade schooler designed them! I bet Steve Jobs is rolling in his grave! First it was the maps and now this!!! Apple is going backwards!!!
 
Wow...

I've been using iOS 7 on my test devices since beta 1 and on all my devices since the official release. I had forgotten how amazing iOS 6 looks. I mean, I could do without the gloss but wow. It's a shame people got bored of it.
